He’s Givin’ the Ladies His Very Best Shot

A man wearing a suspiciously familiar hockey mask over a heavy beard and a blood-spattered apron wields a machete in the middle of a cold, tiled room.

Last week’s answers are posted, and not a moment too soon! It was a total washout with none of the lyrics identified. Let’s see how this week goes!

The closest anyone got was John, who identified the super-secret bonus point as “Once in a Lifetime” by Talking Heads. Which was half right. It was Talking Heads with “Psycho Killer.” I can understand the mix-up, though, especially when I’m constantly posting Kermit the Frog singing “Once in a Lifetime” from Muppets Tonight.

I really wish I had gotten back on a weekly schedule for October, because you might have observed a theme in that every song was monster/horror themed (or titled) and, somehow, I avoided using “Zombie” by The Cranberries.

Now, let’s get into this week’s 10! Get in the comments, identify the artist and the song. Beyond that, remember the rules are 1) no searchin’, and 2) if you identify a different version than the one I listed, you still get credit as long as I can find that version. Let’s crack in!

  1. All he wants is money to make the good feeling last (2020)
  2. He roller coaster, he got early warning (1969)
  3. The daytime party flowed with champagne-filled coconuts (2015)
  4. Step into the party, disrupt the whole scene — when it comes to beats, well, I’m a fiend (1998)
  5. See that bloody hatchet coming right at you (1984)
  6. The fireman screams and the engine just gleams (1970)
  7. Gainfully employed, yeah, I miss smoking weed (2026)
  8. But hey, man, free rides just don’t come along every day (1998)
  9. Nobody got in nobody’s way, so I guess you could say it was a good day (2015)
  10. Bad like a villain, I pop it and then I reload (2020)
